I can not judge who will be in heaven but I can say that those who are in heaven are there because Christ made the way for them.

Did you know that if Homo abilis had not evolved into Homo sapiens some 500,000 years ago we would not be here talking to each other?
For hundreds of thousands of years people lived by hunting and gathering in primitive tribes. Why didn't God send a savior in prehistory? Wouldn't that have saved a lot of trouble when people were at the beginning of their experiences with living on earth?
Why did it take the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross to save mankind? Couldn't that business of saving people be done without such barbaric methods?
But then again, are we trying to make sense of Alice in Wonderland?

atheist a. which ability, no longer. theist. which ability concept in a private god. atheist. We very purely do no longer have faith in a private god. it is not that we are denying something. Your thought technique assumes there's a god. We anticipate there is no longer. we don't deny a god exists on your ideas. One would not exist in ours. Like saying I do or do no longer have faith in Zeus. i'm extra curious on your assertion, "what do atheists have faith"? as though concept is a reason to stay. I just about in no way start up a sentence with the words "i've got faith". in all possibility as a results of fact those words are the foundation for opinion or a thought approximately something i'm being asked to remark on. Like, "i've got faith Scott went to the action pictures". i'm undecided, i'm guessing. So concept isn't something that policies the lives of atheists.

Seriously, there is no god. He was made up by some historically obscure tribes of illiterate Semitic goat herders who lived over 2000 years ago – and he has not been seen or heard from since.

This is a subject that most christians will not touch. You see, in my personal belief those who have not heard of God come to him like little children. That was Christianity's early mission: To seek out and convert people to prevent them from going to Hell. It is highly arrogant to think that only you as a Christian can save people's souls.
So my answer is no. People who have never heard of God are not liable to uphold the tenants of faith nor are they "condemned". It is hocus, early Christian nonsense.

No. I think we're judged according to the opportunities we receive. And besides, I believe there are differing rewards in heaven based on who we become. I don't think it's a straight cutoff for heaven and hell and that all enjoy or suffer the same. I think that man will be judged based on the opportunities he has received.

Jesus didn’t come to show people how to live sinless lives. There had been thousands of years of prophets telling the people that God was going to judge his children. They had the law to show them what they should and shouldn’t do. No, Jesus came to pay for the sin of the world. Those who show the law written on their hearts have the testimony of Jesus in them. That’s what God sees. Is the testimony of his righteousness in them? Do their actions testify to the presence of his spirit in their hearts?

Lets narrow this down. Suppose you know all about Christianity, to the point that you accepted Jesus Christ as your personal savior. You get married and have children, but intentionally refuse to share the gospel with your children. Years go by, you get old and die, your children grow old and die without ever having the opportunity to hear the gospel. According to the Bible, they will not enter into heaven. Who's responsibility and subsequently fault is it? God or yours?

That's why we go to Bob's island/land. Many of us believe we must tell all the people about God. In any case, my main concern is wether or not I have a relationship with God. So, while the question has a answer to be debated, it's irrelevant if you are following God's will.

God's plan is perfect, everyone is included. If there are indeed children of God out there who still have not heard the gospel, I am sure He has plans to reach them.
